  • Question
  • A can give B 100 meters start and C 200 meters start in a kilometer race. How much start can B give C in a kilometer race?


  • Options
  • A. 110.12 meters
  • B. 111.12 meters
  • C. 112.12 meters
  • D. 113.12 meters

  • Correct Answer
  • 111.12 meters 

    Explanation

    A runs 1000 meters while B runs 900 meters and C runs 800 meters.

    Therefore, B runs 900 meters while C runs 800 meters.

    So, the number of meters that C runs when B runs 1000 meters = (1000 x 800)/900 = 8000/9 = 888.88 meters

    Thus, B can give C (1000 - 888.88) = 111.12 meters start
